Abstract

The Gold Coast Seaway is one of two main tidal inlets located on the Australian East coast at a longitude of 27°56'10S and a latitude of 153°25'60E linking an intra-coastal waterway known as The Broadwater with the Pacific Ocean.. The reasons for construction of the Gold Coast Seaway and the associated sand by-passing system in the 1980s were stabilising the entrance, maintaining a safe navigable channel, preventing shoreline erosion to the north and maintaining an adequate beach width to the south.
